Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Andrew A Swan"
Andrew A Swan's research focuses on genomic selection and prediction in sheep populations, emphasizing the improvement of economically important traits such as wool quality, meat quality, and reproductive performance through advanced genomic techniques.
His recent studies highlight the use of whole-genome sequence data to enhance the accuracy of genomic predictions and the identification of candidate genes for various traits, ultimately aiming to boost genetic gains and improve breeding programs.
Swan's work also includes exploring the applications of genomic technologies in small breed populations and assessing the implications of genetic correlations between traits to optimize breeding strategies.
